yes but make sure its a suitable dye for use over blonde. i didn't check and my hair went olive green. no word of a lie and it cost me loads of money to get it put right.

OK when you dye your hair blonde it goes through lightening stages and if the blonde dye is removed too early it looks ginger or a straw yellow....... AGREE? - Yes

This is the STRIPPING of the natural pigment in your hair that gives you your 'natural' colour.

Once the natural colour has been removed you have to put the RED back into it before the brown will take.

GO GET IT DONE BY A PRO, if you just dye it brown over the highlights in a week or two the brown dy will fade away leaving you with the highlights again.

Hope this helped you.

Hey... You could dye your hair brown at home, but it is alot better to get it done profesionally because you hair can go green or khaki if you try to go brown because you need to put red undertones and drabber on bleached hair when dying it any form of brown... But since there is only a t section... you may aswell take the chance...

I had my hair blinde like yours and i hated it. I went to superdrug and bought there own make of permanent dye it is called Coulour performance and i got shade 5/0 natural medium brown. it covered the blonde bits perfectly. Just follow the instructions to the letter there is no need to leave it on any longer than the rest of your hair either.

test the dye on a small part of ur hair first, wait 2/3 hours if ok go for it but be careful as sometimes u might get a bad reatin 12 to 24 hours later.

The bleach highlights have essentially leached the color out of your hair so you'll still have off color streaks. If you're okay with that, go for it - though you might want to do the strand test on both your natural hair and the bleach highlights to be sure of the color. Good luck!

Just cover it with brown dye. Leave the dye in a little longer and put the dye in the part where it's the lightest.

Buy brown hair dye, follow the instructions, and you'll have brown hair. Since you have lighter hair now the colour will come out bright and nice!

yeah, but remember to put on a red first, bleach takes out the natural red tones in ur hair, i do it all the time, and have had no problems with doing this, and the red only has to be a wash in wash out, just do the brown, the next day....

REMEMBER RED HAIR DYE FIRST - OTHERWISE GREEN HAIR!!
